I became a weirdo in Marvel

Chapter 89 Follow-up
There are ruins everywhere, and the once prosperous streets are now only broken walls and ruins.

A large number of houses were razed to the ground, and steel bars and concrete were twisted into strange shapes, as if silently telling of their former glory.

On the ground, charred trees and vehicle wreckage were intertwined, like the traces left after being engulfed by a huge flame.

The air was filled with choking smoke and dust, and the sunlight struggled to penetrate the thick haze and fell on the devastated land, appearing particularly dim.

Suddenly, a beam of light penetrated the smoke and dust and fell on a distorted plaque, and the words "Midtown High School" could be vaguely made out.

"We've arrived. This should be the core of the Demonic Giant Tree. Everyone, form teams of two and search the area carefully. Send out signal flares immediately if you encounter any situation!"

"Yes!"

A team of agents wearing thick radiation-proof suits spread out, searching for any devil fruit remains or other valuable items that might be left here.

After a while, a bunch of flares rose up with a whoosh, exploding with brilliant light in the air. The captain in charge of this operation identified the direction and rushed over immediately.

"Captain, look."

Looking in the direction pointed by the team member, the captain saw a body that was completely black, as if it had been burnt to charcoal, with some familiar battle clothes remaining on it.

The captain was silent for a while, then he took out his communicator and said, "Chief, I think we have found our countrymen."

".Bring him back."

"Yes!"

Carrying the body that looked like a native of Homelander, the team of search agents evacuated the radiation-infested land in an orderly manner.

In the next ten to twenty years, this should be a military defense zone where ordinary people are prohibited from entering.

In the darkness, a pair of orange eyes followed the group of people until their figures disappeared in the smoke and dust. Then the owner of the eyes slowly crawled out from his hiding place.

This is a black puppy with most of its hair falling off, revealing its mottled skin.

Its body was trembling slightly, and every step it took seemed so difficult, as if every bone was protesting against its moving forward.

Suddenly, the puppy's nose twitched slightly. It seemed to smell a familiar scent in the radioactive air, and its staggering steps quickened a little.

It came to the mountain of plant debris and used the little strength left in its body to dig out the carbonized, fragile remains.

With a "click", a green fruit only the size of a fist rolled out from where it was digging and was blocked in front of it.

The puppy sniffed the smell on it and found it had a peculiar meaty aroma. Without any hesitation, he immediately opened his mouth and swallowed the fruit in one gulp.

".A large number of liberals spontaneously held demonstrations, criticizing the government's irresponsible use of nuclear bombs in local cities. A large number of people also said that the president's brain is full of history, and the government's trust has dropped to the lowest level in nearly a hundred years."

"We have specially invited a famous nuclear physicist from Columbia University to explain to us what impact a nuclear bomb exploding in Manhattan will have on our future lives."

"In fact, with our current nuclear bomb technology, we can already achieve precision strikes. We can see from the picture that the explosion of the nuclear bomb only affected a few hundred meters. Of course, the more terrifying thing about nuclear bombs is the residual radiation. It is estimated that it will take a considerable amount of time to eliminate the nuclear radiation in that area to a level that is not harmful to the human body."

"Many people have questioned superheroes like Homelander, wondering what they were actually doing when the disaster happened."

Snapped!
The TV screen turned black in an instant. Pepper turned off the TV, walked to the bed, and looked at Tony with a gloomy face with concern.

"Tony, don't take it to heart. Those people are just talking nonsense. They don't know what kind of efforts you have made."

"Then let them all know." Tony's face turned pale, his bloodshot eyes burning with anger. "Do you think I'm the kind of person who lets others beat me up without fighting back? Arrange a press conference tomorrow and invite all the reporters who can be invited. I'll show them what superheroes do."

"Tony, don't be impulsive."

"Thank you, I'm calm and do as I'm told."

Pepper sighed and nodded, "Okay. I came here to tell you that someone from SHIELD wants you to go to the headquarters immediately."

"What am I doing there?"

"I heard that the people from our motherland have been found."

"."

Tony opened his mouth, and his throat seemed to be blocked by something. It took him a long time to utter a word.

"Then go there."

SHIELD headquarters, conference room.

The door was opened and Tony walked in with a cane. He looked around and found that there were quite a few people sitting inside, many of whom were familiar faces. In addition to Fury and other SHIELD people, there was also the wizard Mordo, who had fought side by side with him before, and Norman Osborn, who he often saw next to his photos.

"Tony, come here and sit down. We're waiting for you." Fury called.

Tony licked his dry lips, refraining from saying anything unkind, and sat down in the empty seat at the front, opposite Norman Osborn.

Tony didn't see any sadness on his face, just a lot of fatigue.

"Mordo, it's nice to see you again."

Tony extended his hand to Mordo beside him: "I thought you had already opened the portal and returned to your wizard's secret place. What is it called, a secret place?"

Mordo pulled the corner of his mouth, patted his palm, clenched it for a while and then let go: "Tony, there is no secret realm, I often go to the bar, and the wizard is not an ascetic."

Tony didn't hear clearly what Mordo said. After trying to digest the image in his mind, he murmured, "Illuminati?"

"what?"

"No, I just thought of a nice name."

"Okay, Tony, let's talk about the past later."

Fury coughed and got down to business: "I called you here this time because of the demon incident two days ago."

"Everyone present here is an eyewitness. The specific situation depends on the report in your hands. I will not go into details. Here I will mainly talk about the subsequent situation. After two days of searching, it is basically certain that the demon Bo Gang has been eliminated by us. This time we won."

Everyone had a heavy expression and none of them felt the joy of winning.

The price of victory was a huge loss that they could not afford. The nuclear bomb alone had left an unhealable wound in their hearts.

What’s the difference between such a tragic victory and losing?
Fury also knew this situation, so he didn't say much and moved on to the next topic: "We also found our countrymen."

"He is still alive."
